Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Wireless Compliance Institute

You declined this submission as not being written from a neutral point of view and I was wondering if you could elaborate on your reasoning. The author is certainly attempting to write a quality article, and personally, while I don't believe that that the article is perfect, I do think it is ready to be moved into the article space.

James I'm a novice at this, but if I understand right, you are the editor who last looked at my Wireless Compliance Institute and rejected it. I'm wondering if you could give me a better feeling for what is missing or improper about it. I've tried to tone it down to be as objectively worded as possible and I think I have an adequate number and variety of sources, but I'm surely missing something.

If this the wrong way to contact you, I apologize in advance ... I'm new here.

Your AfC review of Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Deborah Berke & Partners Architects

Hi, can you please explain why you rejected this as "not adequately supported by reliable sources"? I see several dozen references to independent published sources, almost all of which look (at first glance) to be reliable. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 16:20, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

Scripts

For some reason the MOSNUM and dash scripts only work in the user talk space for me, I've used IE9, Firefox, Chrome and Maxthon and the only browser I can use it, albeit with problems, is IE9, however, I need to refresh the page each time I want to use one of the js functions, does anyone know why this is? —James ^{(Talk • Contribs)} • 6:06pm • 08:06, 8 May 2012 (UTC)

If you don't find an answer through this request, you might try asking at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject User scripts or use the IRC channel #mediawiki-scripts or crowd source at the help desk. Meanwhile, which scripts? Are you using Vector or some other skin? Not sure but maybe try going to Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-gadgets → Compatibility → turn on The JavaScript Standard Library. Leaving this open as not my area of expertise.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 12:31, 8 May 2012 (UTC)

It is probably the AutoEd script that is causing the others to fail. I found it to be not as useful as the other stuff. Try removing it and refresh your cache and then see what happens. --Dianna (talk) 01:48, 9 May 2012 (UTC)

Nope, that wasn't it, thanks for the suggestion, though. The MOSNUM scripts still only work on Talk pages :\ —James ^{(Talk • Contribs)} • 4:43pm • 06:43, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

1. Try shutting off WikiEd, if you have it turned on. It's under Preferences - Gadgets.
2. You could also try eliminating all scripts and re-adding them one at a time till you find which one is problematic.
3. The set in my vector.js all work and play well together (Toshiba - Windows Vista - Firefox) so you could use that as a starting point if you like (some of them you would not need though, as they're admin-tools to aid in image deletions). Try this:

importScript("User:GregU/dashes.js"); 
importScript("User:PleaseStand/segregate-refs.js");var SegregateRefsJsAllowConversion = true;
importScript('User:Cameltrader/Advisor.js');
importScript('User:Dr_pda/prosesize.js'); //[[User:Dr_pda/prosesize.js]]
importScript('user:js/urldecoder.js')
importScript('User:Ohconfucius/script/Common Terms.js');
importScript('User:Ohconfucius/script/EngvarB.js');  //[[User:Ohconfucius/script/EngvarB.js]]
importScript('User:Ohconfucius/script/formatgeneral.js');
importScript('User:Ohconfucius/script/MOSNUM dates.js');  //[[User:Ohconfucius/script/MOSNUM dates.js]]
importScript('User:Snottywong/diffconverter.js'); //[[User:Snottywong/diffconverter.js]]
importScript('User:Ucucha/duplinks.js');
importScript('User:Ucucha/HarvErrors.js');

If you get that working, you could re-add any other needed scripts one at a time until it busts; then you'll know where you are at. Seems to me that User:Plastikspork/datetools.js might be a problematic one. User:Ais523/adminrights.js could probably be dropped as this information is readily available in pop-ups. -- Dianna (talk) 14:17, 12 May 2012 (UTC)
